Granite awarded $80M infrastructure project in Forney, Texas

Granite (GVA) has been awarded an approximately $80 million contract by the Texas Department of Transportation to upgrade a section of Farm to Market 548 (FM 548) near Forney, TX. Project funding is to come from state sources and will be included in Granite’s first-quarter CAP. This infrastructure project will transform the existing asphalt paved roadway from FM 548 north of US 80 to Windmill Farms Blvd into a concrete paved roadway, including additional travel lanes and drainage upgrades. Project improvements will provide increased traffic capacity to help relieve traffic in the rapidly growing City of Forney and surrounding Kaufman County, particularly through the busiest commercial area in the city.
